This fully revised and updated second edition of the Handbook of Emotions provides a comprehensive analysis of what is currently known about emotion in human behavior. Demonstrating the vitality and strength of the field and illuminating promising directions for future research new and revised chapters bring readers up to date on the extensive theoretical and empirical gains that have been made since the publication of the classic first edition. The volume is organized into seven sections. Chapters first set forth a broad overview of concepts and research models emerging from disciplines as diverse as history, anthropology, sociology, and philosophy, in addition to psychology. Biological and neurophysiological approaches to emotion are then presented, with coverage of compelling new findings on brain behavior relationships. The following three sections address the development of emotions; issues related to social processes and personality; and the complex interface between affect and cognition. Next, pathbreaking research on emotions and health is presented in a new section that represents one of the field's most dynamic and fruitful areas of inquiry. Finally, in-depth reviews are provided of a selection of widely studied emotions.
